A recent study compared diets in women with obesity. High-protein diets increased muscle mass by 2.95%. Low-carb diets reduced trunk fat by 3.79%. Keto diets led to a 4.08 cm waist reduction. Very low-calorie diets resulted in muscle loss and a 5.39 cm waist increase. Time-restricted eating showed smaller weight loss and waist gain. Results highlight how macronutrient composition matters—even when calories are equal. #NutritionResearch #BodyComposition #Scie…
